# unconfUROS
The annual [conference on the use of R in official statistics](https://www.aanmelder.nl/uros2018) will take place on the premises of Statistics Netherlands September 12-14. We are excited to announce an unconference use of R in official statistics on the two days just before the uRos conference.

## Motivation
The idea behind the event (similar to http://unconf17.ropensci.org/ for R in general) to bring together useRs from the area of official statistics to work for two days on concrete projects where enhancements would benefit many institutes, organisation,... .

Similar to the idea of the [awesome official statistics software](http://www.awesomeofficialstatistics.org) list, this should complement an abstract top-down approach such as the [common statistical production architecture](https://statswiki.unece.org/display/CSPA/CSPA+v1.5) with fast bottom-up solutions.

## Presentation

The results of unconfUROS will be presented during the ensuing uRos2018 conference.

## Implemented ideas

- [A shiny app for data validation and rule management](doc/data_validation.md)
   - [unconfUROS result](https://github.com/uRos2018/validaty)
 - [A categorical variable that satisfies needs of NSI's](doc/categorical.md)
   - [unconfUROS result](https://github.com/uRos2018/categorical)
 - [A shiny app that visualizes an interactive price kaleidoscope](doc/price_kaleidoscope.md)
   - [unconfUROS result](https://github.com/uRos2018/voronoiTreemap)
 - A wrapper for the Dutch (reverse) geocoding service [Locatieserver hosted by PDOK](doc/locatieserver.md)
   - [unconfUROS result](https://github.com/uRos2018/nlgeocoder)

## Other ideas

- [Machine learning techniques for imputation (boosting, deep learning, ....)](doc/MLimputation.md)
 - Sampling package that covers the need of NSIs
 - A shiny app for statistical disclosure control of tabular data (using [sdcTable](https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=sdcTable))

## We are fully booked!

As of 13 August 2018, the unconf hackathon is at its maximum capacity, so no new applications are accepted.
